Course Description: Intensive Italian Review. Intensive training in understanding, speaking, reading, and writing
Italian. Grammatical structures and vocabulary in context. Prereq.: ITAL 2605. 4 s.h.
“The class hour is a weekly 50-minute class period and is the basic unit of instruction. The term
‘semester hour’ (s.h.) signifies one class hour a week carried for one 15-week semester (or the equivalent
in a summer term or flexibly scheduled class). A semester hour of credit represents an average of three
hours of study and instruction every week through the term.” Youngstown State University
Undergraduate Bulletin 2013-2014, p. 38.
Course Objectives: In this course you will build on your basic knowledge of the Italian language through the study
of contemporary Italian culture. Our focus is on developing strong oral and writing skills, although we will also
improve reading and listening comprehension skills. Through the review of grammatical structures, vocabulary
development, frequent conversational practice in pair and group work, written compositions and oral presentations
you will develop increased fluency and ease in speaking and writing in Italian. You will learn about various aspects
of Italian culture and everyday life in Italy, including: Italian internet and cell phone culture; traditional Italian card
games; and Italian movies, fashion and clothing. You will also read selections from contemporary Italian writers
and journalists. Through studying these materials, you will learn to use more idiomatic language, and you will gain
practice in speaking and writing in more complex sentences. You will refine your ability to discuss future events,
make polite requests, express desires and intentions, and give and receive instructions. You will master the
subjunctive mood, which Italians use to express opinions, beliefs, doubts and emotions. Italian majors must achieve
a minimum level of Advanced Low on the Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI) and Writing Proficie ncy Test (WPT),
both administered by ACTFL, in order to complete the major. Italian Education majors must achieve these levels
prior to student teaching.
Grading: Your grade for the course will be determined as follows:
10%
attendance and active participation in class (see evaluating rubric)
15%
QUIA workbook / lab exercises
20%
written compositions (and rewrites)
10%
oral presentation
25%
quizzes
20%
final exam
*Minus any points deducted for violating classroom policies
(see Classroom Policies chart)
Grading Scale: Letter grades will be assigned based on the following scale:
A: 90-100 B: 80-89 C: 70-79 D: 60-69 F: Below 60
Your Banner account will display your final course grade approximately one week after the final examination.
Required Course Material: In this course we will be using a printed textbook, and an on -line workbook/laboratory
manual. For the workbook/lab manual, you purchase an access card containing a book-key code rather than the
book in printed form. The textbook and access card required for this course (which may or may not be packaged
together) are:
• Tognozzi & Cavatorta, Ponti. Italiano terzo millennio (3 rd edition) textbook
• Access card for Ponti (3rd edition) electronic workbook/lab manual (powered by QUIA)
Recommended Course Material:
• Colaneri & Luciani, 501 Italian Verbs
• Italian-English Dictionary (i.e., Bantam paperback)
Academic Honesty: It is assumed that students will do their own work. Students may help one another by sharing
knowledge and information when doing assignments inside and outside of class. However, students must not copy
from one another or from any source, nor should they seek help from native speakers in preparing graded
assignments outside of class. Translation software may not be used. Furthermore, students must not help one
another during tests.
Americans with Disabilities Act: In accordance with University procedures, if you have a documented disability
and require accommodations to obtain equal access in this course, please contact the instructor privately to discuss
your specific needs. You must be registered with the Center for Student Progress Disability Services, located at 275
Fifth Avenue, and provide a latter of accommodation to verify your eligibility. You can reach CSP Disability
Services at 330-941-1372.
USE OF THE TARGET LANGUAGE IN THE CLASSROOM
FROM: http://www.actfl.org/news/position-statements/use-the-target-language-the-classroom-0
Research indicates that effective language instruction must provide significant levels of meaningful communication*
and interactive feedback in the target language in order for students to develop language and cultural proficiency.
The pivotal role of target-language interaction in language learning is emphasized in the K-16 Standards for Foreign
Language Learning in the 21st Century. ACTFL therefore recommends that language educators and their students
use the target language as exclusively as possible (90% plus) at all levels of instruction during instructional time
and, when feasible, beyond the classroom. In classrooms that feature maximu m target -language use, instructors use
a variety of strategies to facilitate comprehension and support meaning making. For example, they:
1.
2.
3.
4.
provide comprehensible input that is directed toward communicative goals;
make meaning clear through body language, gestures, and visual support;
conduct comprehension checks to ensure understanding;
negotiate meaning with students and encourage negotiation among students;
5.
6.
7.
8.
elicit talk that increases in fluency, accuracy, and complexity over time;
encourage self-expression and spontaneous use of language;
teach students strategies for requesting clarification and assistance when faced with comprehension
difficulties; and
offer feedback to assist and improve students’ ability to interact orally in the target language.
*Communication for a classical language refers to an emphasis on reading ability and for American Sign Language
(ASL) to signed communicative ability.

Departmental Policy on Attendance, Make-up Work, Incompletes and Extra Credit:
Attendance Policy: The Department has developed the following attendance policy . Please note that this policy
exists independent of the class participation grading component.



Students who miss 50% or more or the classes shall have their final grade lowered by 2 letter grades (i.e.,
an A will become a C, a B will become a D, and a C or D will become an F).
Students who are absent 25-49% shall have their final grade lowered by 1 letter grade (i.e., an A will
become a B, a B will become a C, a C will become a D, and a D will become an F).
Excused absences will not be counted in the above calculations, but for an absence to be excused,
acceptable documentation must be provided to and approved by the instructor (and then passed on to the
Department Head).
Make-up Policy: Graded work missed (or not submitted) due to an excused absence must be made up as quickly as
possible. Students will have one day per day of excused absence to make up the missed work (e.g., if class meets
MTWF and you miss Tuesday and Wednesday and return to class on Friday, you would have to make up the work
by the next Tuesday.) A “make-up request” form must be filled out and signed by the student and instructor. This
form will include an explanation for why the student requires a make-up, and will specify the DATE and TIME
when the make-up will be given (or the assignment turned in). Failure to meet that deadline will result in a grade of
zero for the assignment. If you are unable to take an exam as scheduled, you must notify the instructor as soon as
possible. A legitimate excuse (illness, accident, or death in the family) will be required for the authorization to
make up the exam.
Incomplete Policy: Incompletes will be given only in cases in which students have completed all assignments and
evaluations for the first thirteen weeks of the semester and have (at the time of the request) a course average which
would enable them to receive credit for the course. A “request for incomplete” form must be filled out and signed
by both the student and the instructor. This form will include an explanation of why the student requires an
incomplete and appropriate documentation to support the request. An “Explanation of an Incomplete Grade” form
will be filed only after the Chair has conferred with the instructor and given approval for the granting of the
incomplete. Students will have one month from the date of the final examination to remove the Incomplete.
Extra credit: Department policy forbids the awarding of extra credit.
Policies and Materials Specific to ITAL 2605
The Ponti Website:
http://coursemate.ceng age.com/ CPReader/ View/9781133102205/default.aspx? anon=True#home
This website provides activities for each chapter of the book, including more detailed grammar explanations,
practice exercises and self-testing. UTILIZE THIS RESOURCE! Also available on this website are Internet Cafè
search activities; and video clips with accompanying comprehension exercises.
Blackboard: Additional course materials and resources will be housed on a Blackboard® site for this course. The
“Calendar” feature, in particular, will be up-dated weekly with daily assignments, homework and other important
communications.
Class Preparation: Daily preparation of assigned work using Ponti Textbook and Quia- Online Workbook/Lab is
essential. Following the syllabus, the sections of the book and the related material are to be studied prior to class
meetings. This means that the assignments posted on your Blackboard calendar should be completed BEFORE
attending class on the date for which they are assigned. To enhance your in-class participation, you should also keep
your own personal list of words and expressions that you want to memorize.
Homework: All homework is mandatory and must be completed on
time. No credit will be issued for homework that is submitted late (unless a
special exemption is given by your instructor).
Attendance: Attendance is fundamental for all language courses and is therefore required for this course.
Attendance will be taken on a daily basis. An attendance record is kept and placed in the Department files at the end
of the semester for both regular and auditing students. You are allowed a maximu m of two excused absences
during the semester. “Excused” absences include required participation in a University sponsored activity (sport,
club, etc.), or absence due to illness, an emergency or an otherwise unavoidable or unforeseen situation. For an
absence to be “excused”, students must email or otherwise inform the instructor in writing in advance of the
course meeting time for which they will be absent and may be asked to supply supporting documentation. For each
additional absence beyond two (2) one point will be deducted from the final grade. Numerous absences will also
negatively affect all other in-class portions of the grade breakdown. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to find
out the assignment for that day and be prepared for the next class.
Be punctual. Two late arrivals will be considered the equivalent of one absence.
CLASSROOM POLICIES
1.
Courtesy in class You are expected to behave courteously towards your classmates and
your professor. Discourteous behavior—raising your voice, disregarding classroom
policies, showing disrespect for others --will negatively affect your final grade.
2.
Arrive on time Do not arrive late for class: you will lose a ½ point from your final
grade every time you arrive more than 5 minutes late. If you know ahead of time that
there will be an issue, let me know and we can make arrangements.
3.
Come to class prepared with your books and any due homework.
4.
No cell phones and computers Unless you are on call for emergencies, turn off cell
phones during our meetings. Receiving calls or texting during class is considered a
violation of policy and if you are found to be in violatio n I reserve the right to report you
to the Vice President for Student Affairs. Do not bring computers to class unless you
check with me first.
5.
No eating during class
you like.
6.
No leaving during class The only exception to this rule will be if you are ill, so be sure
to use the restroom before class. If you disregard this rule, your attendance/participation
grade will be lowered.
7.
No plagiarism You are responsible for knowing the definition of plagiarism and
cheating. If you are caught plagiarizing, cheating, copying, using internet services for the
production of your writing assignments, you will automatically be given a zero for the
assignment, and possibly referred to the Department Chair.
8.
Absence policy Attendance is absolutely essential in a language course. Up to 3 excused
absences (illness, job interview, etc.) with PRIOR notification and/or email to instructor.
Each further or unexcused absence will lower your final grade by 1 full point. Numerous
absences also negatively affect all other in-class portions of the grade breakdown.
9.
Timeliness All work for the course must be completed ON TIME in order for you to
receive credit. If unusual circumstances arise that will prevent you from meeting
deadlines, you must inform the instructor in advance and/or provide documentation.
No food in class, but you may bring coffee or other drinks if
YOUR WORK IN THE COURSE
Preparation for Class It is absolutely essential that you complete all homework assignments on a day -today basis so that you will be prepared for in-class activities. Homework assignments foster your individual
learning process outside of class, and you are expected to use these exercises to practice and expand on what
we learn in class. Homework assignments include textbook, workbook, and lab manual exercises, completion
of on-line video exercises, Internet searches, blog assignments, etc.
Active Participation in Class Your class participation will be evaluated regularly: See “EVALUATING
CLASS PARTICIPATION” section below for our grading scale. To do well in this course, you must be
diligent in completing homework assignments on time so that you will be able to speak up in class and take
an active, informed part in all classroom activities. The goal is to have you speaking as much Italian as
possible during class; this should be one of the most enjoyable parts of the course!
On-Line Workbook and Laboratory Manual Exercises (QUIA) are accessible from any computer with an
Internet connection. To access these exercises, go to www.books.quia.com and log on, using the key code you
have purchased. I will provide you with instructions regarding how to register for the class. When you do the
exercises on your computer, you will receive instant feedback and grading, and when you are finished, you
submit your results electronically to your instructor. Some exercises are too complex fo r the computer to
grade. In these cases, I will correct them and provide you with feedback online. Unless a special exception is
granted, all late homework will receive a zero grade.
YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KEEPING UP WITH THIS INDEPENDENT WORK. Workboo k exercises
give you critical practice with the material in each chapter of your textbook. Laboratory exercises
complement what you learn in class and give you essential out -of-classroom practice in proper pronunciation
and in listening comprehension. The electronic format’s instant feedback allows you to better assess your
progress and identify the areas in which you need further study. Due dates for completion of these exercises
will be posted as the semester progresses on the course Blackboard site. It is your responsibility to check
Blackboard daily for up-dates on assignments and notices!
LATE ASSIGNMENTS will receive a zero, so do not leave these exercises until the last minute. If you need
technical help, it is your responsibility to contact http://books.quia.com/support.html and copy me into
your email so that I can keep abreast of the situation. If your computer cannot accommodate this
electronic work, there are numerous other computer labs on camp us at which you can work. Consult with the
Media & Academic Computing Department at (330) 941-3790 for further information on academic computer
services.
Written Compositions Compositions must be typewritten and double-spaced. You will submit a first draft
and a corrected version (rewrite) for each composition. I will review the first draft and indicate areas that
need to be corrected or revised. Be sure to make all necessary changes based on my comments. When you
submit your revised essay, you must also turn in the original draft with my comments. Your final grade for
each composition will be close to the average of the grades for the two drafts, but with more weight given to
the grade for the second draft. It is in your interest to put forth your very best effort in the first draft and to
pay careful attention to my comments when writing your second draft. ONE composition will be done in class, without a rewrite. Plagiarism will not be tolerated!
Compositions will be assigned letter grades, which correspond to the following numerical grading scale:
Grade equivalents
A
AB+
B
BC+
93-100
90-92
87-89
83-86
80-82
77-79
C
CD+
D
F
73-76
70-72
65-69
60-64
below 60
Oral Presentation Working in groups of 2-3 people, you will conduct research and prepare a power-point
presentation which you will present to the class. Your presentation will give you an opportunity to: practice
and expand on the grammatical and cultural knowledge gained during the class; focus on an aspect of Italian
culture that especially interest you; share this knowledge with your classmates —and learn from their
presentations. Be as creative as you can, and have fun with this group work! Be sure to avoid plagiarism!
Quizzes There will be 3-4 demanding quizzes over the course of the semester designed to test your mastery
of new vocabulary, grammatical structures, and listening comprehension. Quizzes are also a tool to keep you
on task with your daily homework assignments. Make sure you study well every night so that when it’s time
to prepare for the quizzes, you will only be reviewing, not trying to really master the material for the first
time!
Discussion Board Postings – For each chapter reading you will be asked to post responses to a series of discussion
board questions, PLUS respond to at least one post submitted by a classmate. The objective behind these
assignments is to have you organize your thoughts around a given subject in Italian so as to better prepare you for
verbal discussion in class. Naturally, it also represents an opportunity to practice your writing skills. We will
discuss specific techniques for creating effective posts in class, but one general rule to follow is NEVER attempt
direct translation from English, and remember that USE OF TRANSLATION PROGRAMS IS STRICTLY
FORBIDDEN, in this and in all other parts of the course!!
Final Exam The final exam will be cumulative. Make sure you keep all your work and handouts in a binder for
easy reviewing at the end of the semester.

Plagiarism, Cheating, and Youngstown State University Policy
Plagiarism: There is a growing problem of plagiarism among students especially through the (mis)use of the
internet. For academic dishonesty and plagiarism (which includes quoting without using quotation marks and
indication of the source used) please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism. For consequences read The
Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities, and Conduct.
More on PLAGIARISM: Basically, plagiarism is using other people’s work as if it were yours. You
may not realize it, but certain practices lead your readers to conclude that your work is not your own.
Here are some of these practices:
1. Using someone's exact words and not putting quotation marks around them, which means the reader
has no way of understanding this is not the work of the author.
2. Using someone's work and not attributing the source .
3. Paraphrasing so closely (same order of sentences, same order of paragraphs, same order of sections),
with merely a word substituted here and there. This indicates that the work is really still someone else's.
The intellectual work of re-thinking the meaning wasn't done. This is true even if the source is given.
4. Cut 'N’ Paste: Using parts of several people's work, which some think is original - Not! The sum
of sentences from other authors doesn't make the combination original. 1
5. Outside help & Internet aids: You should not seek outside help for any of your work in this course
unless authorized to do so by your instructor. Use of electronic translation tools is forbidden for the
writing of your compositions in Italian. You may use helpful electronic reference websites (such as
www.wordreference.com/) to check on verb conjugations or to look for a word or an occasional simple
phrase, but copying a full sentence (or many phrases in one composition) will be considered plagiarism.
You may not copy or cut & paste sentences or paragraphs directly from the Internet without proper
referencing (as in points 1-4 above.)
YSU POLICY
According to Youngstown State University policy, the instructor has the right to fail a student on an
assignment in which the student cheated or plagiarized, and s/he may forward any case of plagiarism to
the Student Academic Grievance Committee. (See The Code of Student Rights, Responsibilities and
Conduct, article IV, section A.1).
Plagiarism will not be tolerated in this course.
Should you have any questions, please discuss them with your instructor.

STUDY TIPS FOR LEARNING ITALIAN WELL
IN CLASS
• Come to class prepared and participate actively.
• Don't hesitate to ask questions during class; if you have a question, chances are that someone else in the room has
the same one.
• Be respectful of your classmates: listen when they speak in class; try to learn from each other. You are each
other's greatest resource on campus.
• Takes risks--mistakes are welcome learning opportunities.
• Cultivate a playful attitude towards learning Italian, and you will often find yourself working hard without noticing
that you are working.
OUTSIDE OF CLASS / HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS
• Study actively, rather than passively Read aloud from the text. Write down verb conjugations and read aloud as
you write. Cover up your written-down version and see if you can recite or re-write them without looking. Check to
see if you're right! This way you engage almost all your senses/skills: visual, oral, aural, kinetic (motion/touch).
Research has proven that the more senses you use, the more likely you are to learn and to remember what you learn.
• Writing compositions
When writing compositions, do NOT write out sentences in English first and then
translate. Start by making a list of the vocabulary (in Italian) you will need: write down the infinitive form of each
verb you want (andare, mangiare, divertirsi, etc.), as well as the adjectives, nouns, and adverbs you might need.
After that, link the words together into meaningful clusters, and then conjugate the verbs.
• Learning vocabulary When learning new vocabulary, avoid translating into English when possible. For
example, you can often connect a visual image (rather than the English word) with the Italian word. If you use flash
cards, have the Italian word on one side and a simple picture or a funny sketch on the other side.
• Study time - frequency and repetition are key. It's better to study for 30-45 minutes every day than to study
twice a week for 2-hour blocks of time.
• On-line exercises Do the on-line exercises consistently and on time. It is crucial for you to hear Italian as much
as possible, so be faithful about the lab manual exercises.
• Humor
Always use humor to help you learn and remember.
• Why talk to yourself every day in Italian? This will help you to internalize the language right from the
beginning; the sooner you do that, the sooner you will begin thinking and dreaming in Italian without any conscious
effort.
• Apply what you learn to your everyday life Make your list of “things to do” or your shopping list in Italian;
before going to sleep at night, tell yourself (in Italian) three things you did during the day and one or two things you
will do the following day.
• With classmates Make a pact to speak to your classmates in Italian when you run into them outside of class. It’s
just as easy to say “come va?” as “what’s up?” Send each other email in Italian.
